Majority of women are known to primp themselves, sometimes beyond reason, in the name of perpetual beauty. It’s not uncommon to see a woman spend thousands of dollars and countless hours to make herself look beautiful. But at the other end of the spectrum, there are women who don’t like spending too much time and money on makeup and other stuff related to maintaining their looks. While it’s true that looking good requires effort, there are women who would rather keep their primping to a minimum and still end up looking nice. For the lazy girl, here are some beauty tips to live by:
Invest on high-quality makeup that lasts
We don’t advocate being a makeup junkie if what you are striving for is low maintenance beauty. High quality makeup usually stays longer and thus eliminates the need to reapply throughout the day. There are lipsticks that stay on for hours even after eating and drinking. Sometimes all a woman needs to look put- together is lipstick, and for this reason, a tube of high quality lipstick is worth spending money on.
Set a palette for your daily look. You don’t need to put on piles of makeup everyday, do you? Your day makeup should be light and easy to put on. Leave the heavy makeup for those nights out with the girls.
Build a good canvas
By good canvas, we mean your face. If you want your makeup routine to be short, you need to have great skin. Clear skin has no or less need for concealers and foundations that can take longer minutes to apply. Now if you are not blessed with great skin, you should invest on a good foundation or concealers that stay longer on the face. Mineral makeup is a good product to try since it’s easy to apply and lasts all day, even if you sweat.
Use multipurpose and waterproof products
There are nifty products that you can use as blush, eye shadow, and lipstick. You should take advantage of such innovations in order to shorten your makeup time. Using a multipurpose product will also help your budget as well.
Waterproof products are great for those who sweat a lot. Who wants to have messy eye makeup in the middle of the day courtesy of streaky mascara? A waterproof mascara is the answer to this beauty dilemma.
Limit the use of curling and straightening irons
Imagine the time you consume every morning curling or straightening your hair before you leave for work. We are not saying that you stop caring for your hair; we want you to limit the use of tools for everyday. Sometimes all you need is a simple ponytail to make your hair look polished and put together. Save the curls and straights for special occasions. Too much heat can actually damage your hair so you will be actually doing your strands a favor by taking them off the heat. If your hair lacks volume, simply put texturing cream and comb out your strands using a round brush for a quick lift.
